Hi I have now JB STOCK ROM 2.20.401.3 rooted, can I upgrade without loosing any apps to rooted +STOCK ROM 2.20.401.5+ ???

You could flash it via Odin, or alternatively flash your stock ICS rom again and then update via KIES (just don't root before using KIES)
EDIT: KIES or OTA
Rooted and on the stock Jellybean 4.1.1 firmware from Samsung. thank's for the advice, I'm a expert now lol.

Did you back up your TApartition while on the old firmware?
If you have a backed up TA and an unlocked bootloader life is easy. If not the above should work

I have a moto E dual Sim !! my phone is rooted with Cynaogen mod 11 installed!! now i cant install motoral service update from playstore to install Lollipop updates!
Rooted phones cannot survive the OTA's.
Don't even try to go for an OTA you would end bricking you phone.

You need to be on stock ROM to install stock updates. As simple as that.
You need to be on pure stock rom (no optimized or debloated) and you can recieve OTA (after ota update u cant downgrade to kitkat) so if u want easy just flah the flashable 5.0.2 update search in forum (this way you can downgrade)
P.S : why not u just flash CM12 as that has more features then Stock ROM and bug free now...

Either flash twrp via fastboot and flash CM12.
Or flash your stock KitKat and wait for LP OTA.
Its totally your choice if you want to remain on stock or continue with custom ROM.
Hello,
I'm Yazan and I'm new to this developing stuff. I had an old Samsung that I used to play with and rooted it but moving to the Xperia z2 was a big upgrade. I have very low experience and would love to root my Xperia z2. I have updated it to the generic lollipop update and would like to know if there is a way to root it. And also could I downgrade to 4.4.4 KitKat root it and install a rooted 5.0 stock ROM?
Thanks for the help. I'll be waiting. :fingers-crossed:
You need to downgrade it to 4.4.2 Kitkat, root it, install Dualrecovery, and then flash a prerooted lollipop firmware via recovery.
Please search the forum for how to do it..

... So I could flash (downgrade) a stock 4.4.2 ROM directly from 5.0.2 using flashtool, then root it and install dual recovery then flash the 5.0 pre rooted rom using the recovery? And btw my bootloader is locked should I unlock it first.

No need to unlock bootloader... Just do as you said...
The intention of downgrading firmware is to gain root without unlocking bootloader.

Haha, thanks I'm sort of new... Thanks though. and which ROM should I choose... 17.1.2.A.0.314 or 17.1.1.A.0.402. My device is D6503
You may use 17.1.2.A.0.314 to downgrade.

Check this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e/general/backup-lollipop-5-1-soak-test-t3144162
It's really simple, and as you already have TWRP, you don't need anything extra. But still, make a backup of your current rom.
